John, when I moved back to my grandparents house in 1999 it brought back all of my wonderful childhood memories of the times we shared with all of our friends on Allard St. Kimberly, Keith, Patty and Frank, and it was great coming back to the old neigborhood and seeing you after 35 years. But you were the same ole soul. Willing to do anything for anyone and your kindness and freindship will always be remembered. Thank you for being a part of my life for over 40 years and my children's especially Dawn who probably got to know you the best over the past several years. Ed and I and our kids will miss you dearly.
Deb and Ed Valentim & Family.

John, I love you will all my heart and I always will. I wish I could have more than 6 years together. But at least those 6 years were the happiest ever for both of us. You are my pride, joy, my best friend, my lover. My girls love you like a dad and miss you terribly.
John, you have touched many lives. I'm sure you're looking down and see who are your real friends. You were loved by many. And my mom wants to let you know she really loved you too.
Your Loving Companion, Dee
